Siené
Siené by Tiziana Terenzi is an unisex extrait de parfum in the niche price tier. It opens with juniper berry, cypress and olive wood, moves into patchouli, incense, iris, myrrh and leather and dries down to honey, musk, amber, sandalwood and oud. Expect around 10 hours of wear, and it projects strongly.
Notes, explained
Opening
- Juniper Berry Gin, basically. Piney, dry and bracing.
- Cypress Cool, green, resinous conifer. Sharp and clean.
- Olive Wood Pale, smooth Mediterranean wood. Dry, a little milky, faintly sweet.
Heart
- Patchouli Damp earth and dark chocolate. Either you love it or it's your least favourite note.
- Incense Smoky, dry and meditative. Adds gravity to anything.
- Iris Cool, powdery, slightly carroty and expensive. The luxury note.
- Myrrh Bitter, smoky resin. Ancient-smelling and slightly cool.
- Leather Smoky, dry and a bit animal. Can be a new jacket or an old saddle.
Dry-down
- Honey Sweet, waxy and slightly animalic. Can smell dirty in large doses.
- Musk Warm, skin-like and slightly sweet. Makes a fragrance feel like you.
- Amber Warm, golden and resinous. Not a real material — a blend that glows.
- Sandalwood Creamy, milky wood. Soft and almost edible.
- Oud Resinous, medicinal, barnyard-adjacent wood. The most expensive note in perfumery.
